The 2022 NFL season will come to an end Feb. 12, as the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles will battle it out in Super Bowl LVII. The game features the best quarterback and tight end in fantasy football in Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, not to mention another elite signal-caller in Jalen Hurts and a pair of high-end fantasy wideouts in A.J. Brown (WR6) and DeVonta Smith (WR9).
Since it’s never too soon to look ahead to next season, I’ve taken it upon myself to post my first one-man, five-round mock draft for 2023. One thing you’ll notice in the results is that this is unlike most mocks I’ve done in the past. With some of the top running backs getting older and an influx of good, young wideouts in the league, the balance of power has shifted to receivers. I’ve also included six quarterbacks, which is far different from what I’ve done in most recent seasons.
This mock includes 12 fantasy “teams” and is based on a PPR scoring system. Each team used different “strategies” with their first three overall picks, so you can see how the roster is built at the top. Notice, a lot of wide receivers have been drafted.
